For XP and Windows 2000 users:

Downlaod the latest client and install it
Run SB to Set up your account and get client running.
Click on the Config Button.
Name: 'screenName' (name to look for in the stats)
Team: 60 (Team you want to join and track stats)
Save the config and then exit the client.
DO NOT enable "Autostart on Windows Boot" for service install.

 open a command prompt, go to the drive and directory (folder) where SB.exe was installed and will be running from and type:

SOBSVC -i (to install SB service)
net start "Seventeen or Bust service" <enter> or
net stop "Seventeen or Bust service" OR
use the Start/Run: services.msc <enter> and start SB Service manually.
SOBSVC -p:2 for Duals
SOBSVC -p:4 for Intel Xeons and P4s with H/T boost enabled (check BIOS!).
then go read what the other command line switches do in the
ReadMeNT.txt for further tweaking, rarely needed for most.

if you decide to shift your processor power to another project
SOBSVC -u (to uninstall SB service)

That sound about right?

Creating a new sticky thread on how to get started, join the team, quick setups, and client tweaks etc., if someone wants to toss more information into that thread, so it accurately reflects 'todays' newest client, tweaks, processor specific information and of course a list of all the current stats sites, should help round it out nicely.
:sleepy:

Once it is installed as a service, how do you monitor the clients in Windows?
